Aim This study reports on any barriers to optimal treatment for lung cancer in South West Victoria.
Description
Methods
Treatment pathways on all patients newly diagnosed with lung cancer was collated (2015, n=200). Results A total of 88% of the lung cancer patients had a history of smoking. Many of the patients presented at Stage III or IV at diagnosis (59%), 25% were diagnosed after an emergency department visit, 85% had chest x-rays, 92% had CT scans, and 86% saw their specialist within 2 weeks.

Patients residing in Geelong were more likely to have their treatment plan discussed at a multidisciplinary meeting compared to patients in the South West (75% versus 42%). At 12 months post-diagnosis there was a higher survival rate for patients residing in Geelong compared to those living in the South West region (51% versus 31%) and for females (57% versus 36%). Conclusion The majority of patients had a history of smoking and many presented with late-stage disease.
